Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, caf?s full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting-rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. What previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room.

Summary

This quote highlights the idea that with overpopulation and rapid urbanization, finding space becomes a common challenge in various aspects of our lives. The increasing number of people in towns means more tenants in houses, guests in hotels, travelers in trains, and customers in caf?s. Even public spaces like parks and beaches are crowded with promenaders and bathers. The quote suggests that what was previously not an issue has now become an everyday problem as finding room and accommodating all these individuals becomes more difficult.
